Holiday Special Catering and Event Packet Thank you for considering SpringHouse for your private event. Whether your gathering is a 25 person luncheon, a 200 person cocktail reception or a catered dinner at another location, SpringHouse will provide quality food and service for your memorable event. The philosophy of SpringHouse is to keep food simple and honest. Chef Rob and his staff thoughtfully prepare and serve fresh local fruits, vegetables, meats and seafood based on seasonality. In order to ensure you and your guests have the best SpringHouse experience possible, all items are seasonal and based on availability. SpringHouse is delighted to offer a variety of venue options, as well as the ability to customize the menu for you event. Details can be found in the following packet. Inquires may be directed to the Assistant Restaurant Manager, Jacob Hoop, at [email protected] or 256- 496-4654 Our Catering and Event Menus are crafted in a few ways: Buffet Style, Plated Dinner, or Chef’s Selection. Based on experience, below are recommendations we know work well! Of course, the final decision is based on your preferences and estimated guest count - but this is a good place to start! Buffet Style Buffet style is recommended for social and interactive crowds - large parties and/or parties with friends and family traveling from out of town. Keep in mind, not everyone has to have a seat since most people will be moving around socializing! For this style, you will select items from the enclosed Catering Menu. Recommended Selections: 2-3 Passed/Stationary Hors d’oeuvres, 1 Salad, 2 Entrée’s (Proteins), 2-3 Sides and 1-2 Dessert (based on event type). For Weddings, don’t forget the Groom! Banana Pudding or fresh made Seasonal Pie is a great choice for a Groom’s Dessert. Plated Dinner This style is recommended for smaller, more intimate events or for those simply wanting a sit down meal. Keep in mind the size of the venue and your final guest count for seating. Due to seasonality, we request you select the protein(s) that you are interested in and, as you and the catering manager go through the planning process, Chef Rob will create a composed dish for you and your guests using seasonal elements. Recommended Selections: 2-3 Passed/Stationary Hors d’oeuvres, 1 Salad, Entrée (2–3 Choice Of* or everyone the same), 1 Dessert or Mixed Seasonal Dessert Platter (based on Event Style). *Choice of Entrees must be turned in at the time the Final Head Count is due. Guests must have a color or symbol for Entrée Selections that fits with your color and design of your event (i.e. Chicken = swirl under name/green, Beef = swirl on side of the name/white, etc.) Assigned seating at tables is highly preferred and will need to be turned in five days prior to event. Chef’s Selection Chose buffet or plated and provide the Catering Manager with food items of your interest and any allergies or extreme dislikes you may have! The Catering Manager will then sit down with Chef Rob to curate a menu specific for your event! 1 Thank you for considering SpringHouse for your event!
